BACON EXPLOSION - PART 1

'The perfect child' told us about this recipe which has been flying around the internet.....and of course 'the husband' had to try it.  It's called Bacon Explosion....click here for more details.

For some strange reason, I can't get all 7 photos to post in one blog entry....so please go to part 2 to see the finished product.

This isn't for anyone on a low fat diet.....it basically consists of 2 pounds of bacon, wrapped around 2 pounds of Italian sausage......slattered with BBQ sauce and cooked on a smoker. Honestly, I can't say as I loved it.....but it was a fun experiment.

  Weave 1 3/4 pounds of thick bacon strips....we did it on foil to make the next steps easier.  Sprinkle with seasonings.

Form a large thin patty of bulk Italian sausage to fit over the bacon.

Cook the remaining bacon till crisp & crumble over the sausage.  Cover with BBQ sauce.

Roll up the sausage patty, sealing the ends....make sure the seam is on the bottom.

Now using the tin foil to help......roll the bacon weave around the sausage roll and sprinkle with more seasonings.
